The Living and Dying Well in Old Age: Spiritual Needs in a Non-Religious Future is a Leverhulme Trust funded research project run by the Principal Investigator, Dr Joanna Malone. 

The study is designed to explore what it means to live a ‘good life’ or to ‘flourish’ in later life. This study also wants to understand what forms of emotional, pastoral, and/or spiritual care older adults wish to experience as part of ‘living’ and dying ‘well’. This study is particularly interested in older adults who are non-religious or not-traditionally-religious (e.g. this might be those who are spiritual, Pagan, or something else).
